Job soft skills worksheet - Free Printable

Let's solve this step by step.

We are given 9 pictures (A to I) and a list of 9 vocabulary words related to job skills. Our task is to match each picture with the correct vocabulary word based on what is shown in the image.

---

Step 1: Analyze Each Picture

#### A.
- Shows two people talking, one pointing, with a speech bubble.
- This represents communication or interaction.
- Likely: Communication or Interact

#### B.
- A globe with various icons around it (like email, cloud, Wi-Fi, etc.)
- Suggests global connectivity, technology, digital communication.
- Best match: Communication (but possibly more about digital interaction)

Wait — let’s compare all options carefully.

#### C.
- Two people sitting together in red seats, looking at something (maybe a phone or paper).
- They appear to be discussing or collaborating.
- Could be interact, work together, or communication

#### D.
- A man with a serious or negative facial expression, arms crossed.
- This looks like a negative attitude
- Clear match: Negative attitude

#### E.
- Two stick figures shaking hands over laptops.
- This symbolizes agreement, collaboration, or deal-making.
- Strongly suggests negotiation or work together

#### F.
- A shelf with labeled bins, organized storage.
- Clearly shows organization

#### G.
- A woman giving a thumbs-up, smiling.
- Positive expression → Positive attitude

#### H.
- A group of people in a meeting room, one person speaking, others listening.
- This is a team meeting — likely work together or communication
- But since they're working as a group, Work together fits best.

#### I.
- A poster with "STAND" acronym:
- Stop
- Think
- Analyze
- Name
- Decide
- This is a problem-solving method.
- So: Problem solving

Step 2: Match Words to Pictures

Now, let’s assign each picture to the most appropriate word.

| Picture | Description | Best Match |
|--------|-------------|-----------|
| A | Two people talking with speech bubble | Communication |
| B | Globe with tech icons | Communication (global communication) |
| C | Two people sitting, looking at something together | Interact or Work together? Let’s see... |
| D | Man with frown, arms crossed | Negative attitude ✔ |
| E | Two people shaking hands over laptops | Negotiation ✔ |
| F | Organized shelves | Organization ✔ |
| G | Woman giving thumbs-up | Positive attitude ✔ |
| H | Group in meeting | Work together ✔ |
| I | STAND problem-solving steps | Problem solving ✔ |

Now we have:

- D → Negative attitude ✔
- F → Organization ✔
- G → Positive attitude ✔
- H → Work together ✔
- I → Problem solving ✔
- E → Negotiation ✔

Leftover words:
- Communication
- Interact
- Active listening

Leftover pictures: A, B, C

Let’s re-evaluate A, B, C.

#### A: Two people talking with speech bubble
→ Communication or Active listening?

But active listening involves paying attention, not just talking. This seems more general → Communication

#### B: Globe with icons
→ Digital communication, networking → Communication again?

But we can only use each word once.

So maybe:
- A = Communication
- B = ? → Still communication?

Wait — perhaps B is Interaction or Connectivity?

But “connectivity” isn’t a listed word.

Alternatively, could B represent active listening? Unlikely — no indication of listening.

Hmm.

Wait — maybe C is active listening?

Look at C: Two women sitting, one showing something, the other looking at it closely. Possibly one is explaining, the other listening.

That could be active listening.

Yes! That makes sense.

So:
- C → Active listening

Then:
- A → Communication (talking)
- B → ? Still left: Interact

But Interact means to communicate or engage.

But B is more abstract — a globe with symbols.

Wait — actually, B might represent communication in a broad sense — digital/global communication.

But if both A and B are communication, that’s a problem.

We must pick only one per word.

Let’s list all words again:

Words:
1. Organization
2. Negative attitude
3. Active listening
4. Work together
5. Positive attitude
6. Communication
7. Interact
8. Problem solving
9. Negotiation

We already assigned:
- D → Negative attitude
- F → Organization
- G → Positive attitude
- H → Work together
- I → Problem solving
- E → Negotiation

Remaining words: Communication, Interact, Active listening

Remaining pictures: A, B, C

Now:

- A: Two people talking → Communication or Interact?
- Both possible, but Communication is more precise for conversation.
- B: Globe with icons → Global communication → Communication
- C: Two people looking at something, one possibly explaining → Active listening

But now we have two pictures (A and B) both suggesting Communication, but only one slot.

So we need to decide which one is best for Communication.

Let’s think:

- A: Direct face-to-face conversation → Communication
- B: Abstract representation of digital/global networks → also Communication
- But B could be seen as interact — interacting via technology?

But "interact" is a verb, while "communication" is broader.

Alternatively, B might represent communication, and A might represent interact?

Wait — interact is a synonym of communication, but slightly different.

But let’s look at C again: Two people sitting close, focused on a device. One may be teaching, the other listening.

This is active listening — yes!

So:
- C → Active listening

Then:
- A → Communication (direct talk)
- B → Interact (since it shows digital interaction, connection across devices)

But is “interact” used for digital connections? Yes — people interact online.

And “communication” is more general.

But “interact” is more about action — exchanging ideas.

But in many contexts, they’re interchangeable.

Wait — let’s check the definitions:

- Interact: to act or react reciprocally; to exchange actions or influences.
- Communication: the exchange of information.

So both apply.

But B shows multiple icons around a globe — suggesting networking, digital interaction, so Interact might fit better.

A shows two people talking — classic Communication.

C shows one person explaining, the other listening — Active listening.

Yes.

So final assignments:

| Picture | Word |
|--------|------|
| A | Communication |
| B | Interact |
| C | Active listening |
| D | Negative attitude |
| E | Negotiation |
| F | Organization |
| G | Positive attitude |
| H | Work together |
| I | Problem solving |

Now check if all words are used exactly once.

List of words:
- Organization ✔ (F)
- Negative attitude ✔ (D)
- Active listening ✔ (C)
- Work together ✔ (H)
- Positive attitude ✔ (G)
- Problem solving ✔ (I)
- Negotiation ✔ (E)
- Communication ✔ (A)
- Interact ✔ (B)

All accounted for.
